An expandable medical device having a plurality of elongated struts, the plurality of elongated struts being joined together to form a substantially cylindrical device which is expandable from a cylinder having a first diameter to a cylinder having a second diameter and the plurality of struts each having a strut width in a circumferential direction. At least one of the plurality of struts includes at least one opening extending at least partially through a thickness of the strut. A beneficial agent may be loaded into the opening within the strut. The expandable medical device may further include a plurality of ductile hinges formed between the elongated struts, the ductile hinges allowing the cylindrical device to be expanded or compressed from the first diameter to the second diameter by deformation of the ductile hinges.
1. An expandable medical device comprising: at least two expandable cylindrical tubes connected by S-shaped bridging elements, each of said cylindrical tubes comprising a network of elongated and substantially rigid struts, each elongated and substantially rigid strut having a neutral axis along opp
1. An expandable medical device comprising: at least two expandable cylindrical tubes connected by S-shaped bridging elements, each of said cylindrical tubes comprising a network of elongated and substantially rigid struts, each elongated and substantially rigid strut having a neutral axis along opposite ends, and inner and outer surfaces defining a thickness;a plurality of through-openings in the elongated and substantially rigid struts, said plurality of openings extending through said thickness at intervals along the neutral axis, each of said through-openings having a substantially constant cross-section from the inner surface to the outer surface;a plurality of ductile hinges interconnecting said elongated and substantially rigid struts, each of the ductile hinges having a reduced section formed at either end of the elongated and substantially rigid strut permitting the expandable medical device to radially expand or compress from a first diameter to a second diameter by first elastically and then plastically deforming, wherein the elongated and substantially rigid struts experience no plastic deformation during expansion or compression from the first diameter to the second diameter; andat least one beneficial agent contained primarily within the through-openings, wherein the inner and outer surfaces of the struts are substantially without beneficial agent thereon. 2. The device according to claim 1, wherein the through-openings are formed by laser drilling. 3. The device according to claim 1, wherein the beneficial agent includes at least one antiproliferative. 4. The device according to claim 1, wherein the beneficial agent is paclitaxel. 5. The device according to claim 1, wherein the beneficial agent is a rapamycin. 6. The device according to claim 1, wherein a width of the hinge is defined as the dimension in the direction perpendicular to a length of the hinge, a thickness of the hinge is defined as the dimension in the radial direction of the device, and the reduced section has a portion of constant width. 7. The device according to claim 6, wherein a transition from the elongated strut to the reduced section of the hinge is abrupt. 8. The device according to claim 1, wherein the beneficial agent includes antithrombins.
